Sometimes.

Most usually it is a mixture of iambs, trochees, dactyls, amphibrachs, spondees, cretics, anapaests and choriambs. (Have I missed any out?)

Iambic feet have how many beats?

An iambic foot is consisted of two syllables -- I'm not quite sure what beats are, but they should be the same as syllables. Each iambic foot has an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, on which you naturally place more emphasis. An example of a line composed of a couple of iambic feet would be: (Here the stressed syllables are in CAPS) i HAVE to GRILL the STEAK toDAY. So, in short, the answer is TWO.
